The guitarist who sells his soul to The Devil is a real legend about a real guy. Robert Johnson was a revolutionary blues guitarist, credited as one of the inventors of Rock and Roll. According to the legend, he introduced the world to innovative new music no one had ever heard before after selling his soul to The Devil at a crossroads. He's part of the reason they call it "The Devil's Music"

[@Thom1212]

The film, "Crossroads", starring Ralph Macchio with musical stylings by Stevie Vai tells that story

[@Jeff_Lichtman]

The story was originally told about Tommy Johnson, but somehow it transferred to Robert Johnson, possibly because he's more famous.

[@acwolf92]

That's the plot for a Supernatural episode that debuted the Hellhound and Crossroads Demon

[@eximusic]

Yes, as mentioned the crossroads myth was applied to more than one blues musician back in Robert Johnson's time. It's a myth from Africa and not originally the devil at the crossroads (as it was a West African myth) but some kind of spirit as most pre-monotheistic religions had. The devil replaced the previous spirit in America as most slaves were forced to adopt Christianity and its cosmology.

[@shadypelican]

It's worth mentioning that the actor, Chris Thomas King, is also a blues musician in real life.

[@AtomixIGN]

What an interesting experience to be introduced to America and American history and American tropes, backgrounds, truths legends, music and vernacular almost strictly through the lens of Red Dead Redemption 2.

[@brianmcconnell1817]

This movie is based on an Ancient Greek poem called “The Odyssey” by Homer. It’s one of the Coen brothers best films and a personal favourite of mine that I watch every time it’s on TV. The cinematography is outstanding, the acting is first rate and the music is memorable, particularly the song “Man of constant sorrow”. The music is almost a character in the film. I personally love how they insert actual historical characters in the film. Tommy the guitarist is taken from the real life guitar player Robert Johnson, who also allegedly sold his soul to the devil. And Baby Face Nelson was a real bank robber from the depression era. Aside from all its great qualities it’s also a very quotable film.

[@Bfdidc]

Don't call him "Baby Face!"

[@Gretchluver1]

Actually Tommy Johnson is taken from the real life Tommy Johnson, who was no relation to Robert Johnson, but also had a legend of selling his soul to the devil in exchange for his musical abilities.

[@johnhelfrich977]

To address your comments as to George Nelson's lack of care in concealing his identity, back in those days the extent of crime-stopping was basically "If the criminals are there when the police arrive, they will go to jail. If they are not, then they won't." It was pretty common practice for bank robbers especially to announce their names loudly in order to build their notoriety, and some would even shoot their names into the walls of the bank before they left.

[@mehim2893]

There's a lot more to it during the great depression. Some labeled criminals were seen as heroes to the common man. Organized crime during the depression is a truly interesting history.

[@reecegraves3738]

Ye can’t imagine they could do much to track criminals down back then lol.

[@cliffchristie5865]

The 1930's gangsters weren't fussy about hiding their identity, if anything, they revelled in their status as colorful folk heroes. Music is indeed a major element of the film and it became one of the best selling soundtracks in recent years. By the way, if no one else mentioned it, the title of this film comes from a line in a 1941 comedy called "Sullivan's Travels". It's about a movie director tired of making fluffy comedies who aspires to make a film of meaning and social importance, which will be titled "O Brother, Where Art Thou?", itself a play on words.

[@chaost4544]

This film has one of my favorite soundtracks and still listen to it on a regular basis.

[@simeonteitelbaum3673]

You also have these Ancient Greek names peppered throughout, which was characteristic of the old south

A big part of why people had so many kids during the depression was basically to guarantee the best chances of survival. More kids were more mouths to feed, but it meant that you had more chances that one of your offspring would survive and once they got old enough you'd have more help around your house. My family is from rural Appalachia and my grandmother is the oldest girl of 10, with each sibling having at least 2 children.

[@johnvarner9089]

A couple of interesting musical and historical notes, the worksong the prisoners are singing at the beginning was recorded in 1959 by Alan Lomax, a folklorist and ethnomusicologist who's famous for his recordings of folk music all over the world but especially in the American south. The credited musicians on the track, James Carter and the Prisoners, are actual prisoners recorded on location at Parchman Farm Prison in Mississippi. James Carter, the prisoner leading the song, received $20,000 for the rights to the song but had to be tracked down before he could receive his check, when they found him he said that he didn't even remember recording the song but he was surprised to hear that the soundtrack was outselling Michael Jackson, reportedly saying "You tell Michael that I'll slow down so that he can catch up with me." Tommy, the blues singer who sells his soul to the devil, is based on real life blues musicians Tommy Johnson and Robert Johnson (no relation), both of whom were claimed to have sold their souls. In Tommy Johnson's case, his own brother claimed that he had done so. It's also worth noting that he's played in the movie by Chris Thomas King, a blues musician in his own right. Chris Thomas King isn't the only musician to appear on screen by the way, the KKK leader who sings "O Death" is portrayed by Ralph Stanley, a legendary bluegrass singer, and the grave diggers who sing "Lonesome Valley" are portrayed by the gospel group The Fairfield Four.

The big claim to fame for this movie is that it was the first Hollywood movie to be 100% digitally color graded to get a certain look. The cinematographer Roger Deakins couldn't get rid of the green color of the vegetation via normal chemical development methods so he spend 11 months developing the digital workflow to get the result we see in the movie. It is also a great interpretation of Homers Odyssey by the Coen brothers, transposed to depression era United States.

I love this movie!! The story is classic, and the music is superior. You'll want to check out Alison Krauss & Union Station. She's a violin/fiddle prodigy with the voice of an angel backed by a band that can't be beat. One of them sang Man of Constant Sorrow.

So happy you reacted to this. I hope you’ll do more Coen Bros movies.

George Clooney is great in this, and also in Out Of Sight!

This album soundtrack sold a bazillion copies and won a Grammy, if I recall correctly. The film was a huge hit as well, of course.

Just so you know, this movie is a "retelling" of Homer's Odyssey .. keep and eye out fir the 3 Surens and the Cyclops. And, BTW, it helps a lot if you are familiar with the Depression era south as a LOT of the events in the film are based on real events...

Watch "The Big Lebowski" Is also from The Coen Brothers

My favorite Clooney movie, another good one which there are many, is Burn After Reading which is made by the Coen brothers who also made this
